Another thing regarding maps... it might be best to avoid any maps where one player starts over the sea, and the other over land (Dover, Sicily etc)
Because its easier to spot players over the sea it could give one player the advantage. Personally I find it quite difficult to spot players from above over land, whereas over the sea you can pick out the target a lot easier.

Hi edal,
i vote option A

I understand - perhaps - english:confused:

I'm up for it if allowed

Northern Ireland
GMT + 0
Evenings and weekends mostly

As for the format discussion I don't mind which way it's run, better and more experienced people than I can decide that. If you notice me online PM me to commence the tryout whenever it suits you, even if I'm playing a difference game.

Yeah i like the sound of A, :)

And regarding Jet fighters, no i do not think they should be allowed. Just incase you get one performing a boom n zoom

If there's only 10 matches, then option A is better. If the matches are 20 minutes, there's not much need to play two of them and against a total of only 4 people.

time-zone grouping doesn't work so great for me though... the time of day I'm usually online is mainly when players from Europe are online. Around 10pm to 7am PST which is 6am to 3pm gmt. Cause I work evenings, I'm on a different schedule than my own time zone.

Maninovka: konnen Sie das Deutsch vielleicht?

edal86 your idea is very good
i m very interressed to participate and im ok for fight the november 11th between 8:30 pm and 23:45 pm in french time
is it possible ?
if it is not good i understand but i can't play after because of my work
exuse me for my bad english
thanks

I think the option that was the original sounds the best (I think it was B?).

As for jets, I would say ban them, and I-153s. I think we're all here for some quality WWII dogfighting action, and although those planes fall under that banner, they are at the extremities of the envelope.

They also are both beatable but it makes for a very boring game doing so.


Also, someone mentioned about the patch, and I think the strike match set up is an excellent workaround, so I don't think we need to wait for it. Especially as we don't know when it will arrive. But if it were to be deployed mid-way through the competition, I do think the competition should be reset...


EDIT: also, Olife ^ is a beast in the 153... lol

I vote for the more original one too! (B)
I say limit it to no jets and I-16/153 (that the one?)

- Yes, but this will work fine if you get to play 2 times against each member of your group (1 as local, the other as guest) this means that you get an opportunity to have an advantage 50% of the time (also this is why I am asking you guys to post your favorite map), understand?

- About Jets, I have seen enough posts saying not to use them, so I wont allow them. (too extreme boom and Zoom plane) I want to keep it fair for all.

- How about the I-153? This plane is also an extreme Turning plane (its the only biplane fighter on game) So I would think that it should be treated as the Jet has been treated, what do you guys think?

THANK YOU FOR YOUR VOTES :)

BY THE WAY, this Tournament starts Sunday, November 15. NO I, am not waiting for patch. This is why I created this rules about the settings.


Basically,
*in option A, you will play against more people (around 9 different players) before qualifying to the eliminatory stage, however, 1 time against each.

*in option B, you will play against only 4 other players (2 times against each,one as local, the other as guest) before qualifying to the eliminatory stage.

*** welcome steyr_amr and -olife, when you see me online ask me for tryout please.***
- you cant use Jets, and since the I-153 is in Jeopardy, you cant use it either until it is decided if it will be allowed in tournament or not.-

KOZZMO, I WILL CONTACT YOU VIA PSN MESSAGE ABOUT YOUR TIME PROBLEM
-if any one else has this problem please post-
